Big typo

"A blistering 216 Mbps, with latency of less than 500 milliseconds"

500 milliseconds is .5 seconds, about the same as a satellite link, very bad.

According to Corridor Systems it should be 500 microseconds, very good latency.

very true, but to Large businesses that dont play games the extra latencity is no problem compared to the speed.

I don't think so. Try VOIP or Video conferencing over a high latency link. Not fun.

Re: Bigger typo

Aw, 'cmon. What's the difference if you're off by a factor of 1,000?

(Best recent gaffe: the FCC, in its recent screed on telephone unbundling, mis-defined "DS-1" as a 1.544 MegaBYTE signal instead of 1.544 MegaBIT signal--and repeated the error for DS-3. When they issued a controversial "Errata" changing several other things in the Order, they missed these two....)
